And Trey has been struggling, Schwartz and Baldinger have pointed it out.
My point is that there are more issues this year, starting with injuries, when we were largely injury-free last year. OL performance is worse. The defense is giving up about 3-4 points more, etc.
again, you want to pretend those aren't happening, whatever. I can only bring the donkey to water, I can't make you drink it.

2.3 more ppg than this point last season... they had also on average played worse offenses (17th) versus this season it's 15. Four top 10 offenses so far this season to 3 at this point last season. Seven offenses that were 20th or worse last season, three so far this season.
There's probably some recency bias when they give up 27 to the Panthers and 30 to the Bills, but people weren't real kind to them when they had just given up 27 to the Packers this time last year and 24 in Denver.
